JAH tim's topical up all night tips
Greetings and love people,
Well the old how do you stay up all night / prepare to stay up all night for this ride question is currently trending as they say.
For me I will
Avoid alcohol
Make sure bike and kit ready night before, so I can sleep easy
Not rush to get up on the Saturday
Be a good boy all week in run up, so on Saturday I am rested rather than knackered
East well beforehand
Keep taking on liquids and food regularly to avoid the bonk
Etc
Etc - it's just about looking after yourself...
Biggest thing for me is not to get too excited at the start of the ride. Just take it easy cos we have all night
This summers' weather
is finally beginning to look up.
Rumour has it it is going to be
Peace and love and two weeks to go,
Tim
